I've got freenx installed on two computers, and on one, I got the error : "E: freenx: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1". I'm not too bothered, but I get this error message every single time I use apt for anything. I've tried removing all nx related packages I could find and reinstalling, but nothing changes. Any ideas ?

I have the same problem, so it also prevents me from reinstalling freenx. I took the advice of one of the posts on this forum and tried to remove it manually by deleting *nx* related files and I think I messed it up. So how can we kill everything related to Freenx and start over again?

try:

nxsetup --uninstall --purge

*Remove everything NX/freenx related*
edit /var/lib/dpkg/status , remove all nx/freenx stanzas.

Install FreeNX again.

edit: I got it working. Clearing the VAR cache did it. Thank you!
